Ask Bill Polian, the former general manager of the Colts, Panthers and Bills, the most difficult place his teams had to play."New Orleans, by far," said Polian, now an ESPN analyst. "That place was always incredibly loud."
This was a popular opinion, but over the past three decades the Saints have the league's lowest home-road differential playing in what is now named the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

"I don't think Dallas has ever really had a great home-field advantage," he said. "... I think for a large part -- and the fans don't want to hear this -- a lot of the people that attend sports in this town, they're there because it's kind of just a place to be seen. I didn't know anybody who went to Rangers games, and then when they started winning and going to World Series, everybody's wearing Rangers hats and saying, 'Oh yeah, I'm a big Rangers fan.'
-Aikman "
it's fun, when you already knew it was true.
